I am about to embark on an amazing journey and am thrilled to have an oppurtunity to share that experience and document it as it plays out in real life.
This is my second time being a Gestational Surrogate. I delivered a beautiful set of twin girls on July 1, 2009. It didn't take long after that for me to know I wanted to help another couple become parents. I applied with a new agency in October and was matched before Christmas.
In early January I flew out to California for the medical evaluation at the Reproductive Clinic the Intended Parents are using. I was lucky enough to meet my new couple face to face, and they are great! I really enjoyed getting to know them and appreciate all the time they set aside for me while I was there!
Once I was cleared by the clinic, we were set to start the contract phase. The legal part has just been wrapped up and we are now starting to move along with the fun stuff...cycling!
My IP's (intended parents) have frozen embryos ready to go. I am scheduled to have my first baseline ultrasound and labs done on 3/15 . We hope to start meds 3/17 and will have follow up ultrasounds and bloodwork on the 22nd and 29th. If my uterine lining cooperates with the plan, we are looking to have the transfer April 7, 2010!
I'll keep you posted....
